Now that one of my friends has opened up his own gaming store, interest in board games is starting to rise with the rest of my friends. So far we haven't started in on anything, but there seems to be a wide variety of games out there.

One card game we picked up on quickly though is Fluxx. It's a simple game for anyone to pick up, as the basic rule is "draw one, play one". Games can last anywhere from 2 minutes to probably 30, so it's usually a quick pace game.
